Every day, companies are trying to find their footing in a world shaped by conflict, climate impacts, and growing inequality. At the same time, new regulations are pushing businesses to step up their work on human rights. This webinar brings these challenges into sharp focus – what does it really take for Swedish companies to uphold human rights when tomorrow is anything but predictable?
Join us for a morning that cuts straight to the most relevant issues shaping Business and Human Rights today. Our speakers, all of whom take part in this year’s UN Forum on Business and Human Rights, will share:
- What stands out right now
- What new challenges companies are facing
- Where they see opportunities for those willing to lead in uncertain times
Start Human Rights Day with fresh perspectives and practical insights on how businesses can drive long-term value, competitiveness, and resilience – all while respecting the rights of all human beings, even in, or perhaps especially, in the challenging circumstances.
